Students will use their animal sketches and notes from the last art class to generate ideas and create a 3-D paper hand puppet of the animal they chose to study. Teacher will demonstrate a variety of paper sculpture and folding techniques. Students will use these paper sculpture techniques and choose contrasting colors/shapes to create an expressive hand puppet with big, bold, and expressive elements of art. Some recycled papers will be used to teach recycling and conserving of our paper resources. Fraction folding techniques/terminology will integrate math into this art lesson. This lesson was developed by Nancy McGuire as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

Students will determine the central message, lesson, or moral of “The Stone Cutter”. Students will recount key details of the text in a sequenced order and explain how those key details communicate the author’s message through a class discussion. Students will read a text independently and demonstrate their understanding by designing motivational posters that include the central message, lesson, or moral (life lesson) of the text. Students will speak clearly and in complete sentences at an understandable pace when using recounting to share relevant details of the text. Students will also illustrate the moral of The Lion and The Mouse.
